“I don’t think they will budge on it because they will back their referees.

“I mean what we’ve got here is Europe’s elite competition and the World Cup was a great success with VAR, big pressure, we’ve got most of the leagues in Europe with VAR and here we’ve got the elite of the elite and we’re relying on a couple of extra officials with their sticks behind the goal.

“In the Liverpool game they got some decisions correct but we’re talking about one of the greatest players in the world here in a competition that they’re trying to win and why he’s at the club and I think that could have potential cleared it up.”
